Working at McDonald's emerged as a key flashpoint between the GOP and the Democrats as Donald Trump claimed Kamala Harris lied about working at McDonald's 41 years ago. To emulate her 'false claim', Donald Trump last Sunday worked a shift at a McDonald's outlet in Pennsylvania and said he worked 15 minutes more than Kamala Harris because Kamala Harris never worked at any McDonald's -- as there is no record of it.
“We have checked with McDonald’s, and they say, definitively, that there is no record of Lyin’ Kamala Harris ever having worked there,” Trump wrote after his McDonald's shift. “In other words, she never worked there, and has lied about this ‘job’ for years.”
Look what I found, Kamala Harris in a McDonalds uniform.

Democrats though they had a bombshell today when a picture of Kamala Harris in a McDonalds uniform hit the internet, 'confirming' she had indeed worked there.
One small problem - turns out the picture was actually photoshopped when the original photograph… pic.twitter.com/kqnryPawmx
Guys, I’m sorry, but I found it, I found the real photo of Kamala Harris when she worked at McDonalds. We gotta be honest as conservatives, and accept we were wrong about this, she was telling the truth. pic.twitter.com/eUorqSlNcd

The truth of Kamala Harris' McDonald's stint
Kamala Harris said she worked at a Bay Area McDonald's 41 years ago when she was in college in the summer of 1983. But the Trump campaign claimed that there has been no record of Kamala Harris working at McDonald's she claimed and hence she lied. But reports said it was a pre-digital era and no record found may not hint at 'never worked'.
What McDonald's said
McDonald's said it is true that no records of Harris' employment exist but this is not an aberration and not a reason to think that she didn't work at a McDonald's. "Though we are not a political brand, we’ve been proud to hear former President Trump’s love for McDonald’s and Vice President Harris’s fond memories working under the Arches. While we and our franchisees don’t have records for all positions dating back to the early ’80s, what makes ‘1 in 8’ so powerful is the shared experience so many Americans have had."
